We stayed here for 3 months and absolutely loved it—would not hesitate to return. The 2BR, 2Bath layout suited all our needs. The rooms were spacious and thoughtfully equipped: the kitchen had washer/dryer, dishwasher, microwave, plus ample pots/pans and cutlery for making meal prep easy. Sean and Cathal were wonderful hosts, always responding promptly and cheerfully to any request. The view of Galway Bay truly exceeded expectations—far better than the photos suggest. The location was unbeatable: just a mile east to Spanish Arch, a mile west to Blackrock diving platform, and the beautiful Salthill promenade, only 200 feet away, connected them both. We enjoyed nearly daily walks and runs along the promenade. Off-street parking helped make renting a car less stressful. Even on rainy, windy days, it was a pleasure to stay inside and enjoy the views and roomy space. The Wi-Fi was fast enough for our zoom meetings back to the US, and the apartment remained quiet throughout our stay. We even hosted Thanksgiving dinner for 12 with ease.
